Grams to ounces (avoirdupois) divides by 28.349523125 — 1 oz = 28.349523125 g exactly. 100 g of chocolate is 3.53 oz; a 250 g block of butter is 8.82 oz. Recipes from US sources usually round 28.35 g to either 28 g or 30 g per ounce; the 30 g version causes a 5.8 % over-measure, large enough to ruin a sponge cake. For baking precision, use 28.35 g/oz and weigh both flour and sugar.
Home bakers working from US recipe sites constantly translate metric ingredient lists this way — a 100 g bar of chocolate is 3.527 oz, a 227 g block of cream cheese is 8.007 oz (conveniently close to the 8 oz block sold in American supermarkets), and 50 g of yeast is 1.764 oz. Postal and courier scales often default to grams internally but display ounces for US-bound parcels, so check which figure the shipping label actually charges against before trusting a mental estimate.

A standard paperclip is about 1 g. A US nickel weighs 5 g. A small pencil weighs around 7 g. In ounces, that gives you: 1 g = 0.035274 oz, 10 g = 0.35274 oz, 100 g = 3.5274 oz.
The gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to one-thousandth of a kilogram. It is the everyday unit for food labeling, postage, jewelry, and laboratory measurements. The 2019 SI redefinition fixed the kilogram (and therefore the gram) in terms of Planck's constant, ending more than a century of dependence on a physical prototype.
The avoirdupois ounce (oz) is a unit of mass in the imperial and US customary systems, defined as exactly 28.349523125 grams (1/16 of an avoirdupois pound). It is the standard small-mass unit in the United States for food packaging, recipes, and postal weights. Do not confuse it with the troy ounce (used for precious metals, 31.1035 g) or the fluid ounce (a volume).
